Honeyguide Tented Safari Camps
Manyeleti Game Reserve-(South Africa)

Location:

The Honeyguide Tented Safari Camps, in the 23 thousand hectare Manyeleti Game Reserve adjoining Kruger National Park, is just a five hour scenic drive from Johannesburg or a short flight either to the Manyeleti airstrip or to Hoedspruit, half-an-hour's drive away. They offer breathtaking wildlife experiences at the same time as pampering the senses with meticulous service and superb cuisine.

Accommodations:

To experience the African bushveld as it was known to the pioneers who first explored it, read Hemmingway. Or visit Mantobeni.

Mantobeni Camp:

The tented camp is set among Tamboti trees on the banks of a riverbed. From the sundeck of the sparkling swimming pool, you can watch elephant visiting the nearby waterhole to enjoy their own cooling off time. We have stripped away all the barriers between the visitor and the environment. While retaining enough of the creature comforts to satisfy the luxury-loving animal in you.

The reception area has a large lounge, indoor and outdoor dining facilities and a complimentary bar with a climate-controlled wine cellar, stocked with a wide range of fine South African vintages to browse through and enjoy.
   
Khoka Moya:

The camp has been designed to reflect the simplicity and openness of African living. Using the universal building material of corrugated iron, reminiscent of the houses of the early gold prospectors, and aged planks recycled from a previous wooden structure, Khoka Moya camp has been created to a traditional African plan.

The large, en-suite tents are comfortably furnished in contemporary style and have either double or twin beds made up with fine cotton sheets and down duvets. A double shower and separate toilet are provided and a private veranda in the front of the tent provides a restful seating area for you to absorb the atmosphere in peace and tranquility.

The communal lounge, dining and bar areas encircle an open atrium where al fresco evening meals are served around a massive log fire. The climate-controlled wine cellar offers many fine South African vintages to meet your personal tastes. Manicured green lawns flow through to the pool and outside bar.

Game Viewing / Activities:

Guests are woken by the sounds of beating drums, and tea / coffee and rusks are served in the tents. Activities include early morning and afternoon and evening game drives in open 4x4 drive vehicles.

During the morning game drive, guests are normally taken on a walk as well (we normally try to find some interesting spoor and track the animals, under the guidance of an armed ranger). This is dependant on the guests wanting to walk and is adjusted according to the group. 

During game drives refreshments are usually served at a scenic spot, particularly at sunset when the view from the Mowhareng Hills is spectacular! After the morning drive, a huge breakfast is served and guests can either relax at the pool or take a walk with one of the rangers, or otherwise relax in the hide at the water hole next to the camp. Lunch is served mid-afternoon and dinner is served in the boma after the evening game drive, which comprises a 3-course meal with a choice of main courses.
